Something that bugs me with the "Killing Grand/mas" page?
It's that they are casually talking about killing females (mother and grandmother) in order to stop males. You know, instead of killing Hitler and Joker themselves when they are babies or something, or even throwing in fathers and grandfathers, they are completely focused on killing the female ancestors of these two men. Even when killing a male ancestor or the villain themselves would have the same effect.
Kind of the phrase "She got herself pregnant" (something that have gotten teen mothers expelled from school, while nothing is done to the father).
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

It just jumped out at me.
